Do you see a green light in the WinMySQL Tool? 
Have you insalled MySQLODBC ver3.51? If so pull up a command prompt and type
c:\mysql\bin> mysqld --console
Also type
c:\mysql\bin> mysqld --install

Try this doc:

Subject: local installation on XP

I've just installed mySQL locally on XP and am getting the following error
while trying to connect via mySQLCC. I have checked the username and
password and things are ok there. XP is running the mysql-nt.exe fine, but
still no go when I try to connect, any ideas??
